Cs 410/610: Theoretical Foundations Of Computing, Thomas Sudkamp
Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi
This course is an introduction to one of the fundamental topics in the theory of computer science: computability theory. Computability theory is concerned with determining whether there is an algorithmic solution to a problem. The study of computability uses the Turing machine as the basic computational model. A Turing machine is a random access, read-write, finite state automaton. The Church-Turing thesis asserts that any problem that can be solved in any algorithmic manner can be solved by a Turing machine.

Coarse-Grained Free-Energy-Functional Treatment Of Quasistatic Multiscale Processes In Heterogeneous Materials, H. Zhou, Ruqiang Feng, Dennis J. Diestler, Xiao Cheng Zeng
Coarse-Grained Free-Energy-Functional Treatment Of Quasistatic Multiscale Processes In Heterogeneous Materials, H. Zhou, Ruqiang Feng, Dennis J. Diestler, Xiao Cheng Zeng
Xiao Cheng Zeng Publications
A new treatment of quasistatic (reversible) multiscale processes in heterogeneous materials at nonzero temperature is presented. The system is coarse grained by means of a finite-element mesh. The coarse-grained free-energy functional (of the positions of the nodes of the mesh) appropriate to the thermodynamic-state variables controlled in the relevant process is minimized. Tests of the new procedure on a Lennard-Jonesium crystal yield thermomechanical properties in good agreement with the “exact” atomistic results.

The Industrial Platinum Cycle For Russia: A Case Study Of Materials Accounting, O. A. Babakina, T. E. Graedel
Yale School of the Environment Publications Series
Platinum is a strategic resource for the world economy and appears to be unsubstitutable in many of its uses. As a consequence, establishing its life cycle and quantifying net increases and decreases may serve as a basis for detecting lifecycle wide opportunities for increasing recycling and reuse of platinum. With this aim, we have characterized the platinum cycle for the Russian Federation for the year 2000. It was found that most of the platinum produced in Russia was exported immediately(21,300 kg Pt/yr (82%)), while the remainder was stockpiled (2,200 kg Pt/yr (8.5%)) or used domestically (2,450 kg Pt/yr, (9.4%)). Russia …

Remarks On Risk-Sensitive Control Problems, José Luis Menaldi, Maurice Robin
Mathematics Faculty Research Publications
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the asymptotic behavior of the discounted risk-sensitive control problem for periodic diffusion processes when the discount factor α goes to zero. If uα(θ, x) denotes the optimal cost function, being the risk factor, then it is shown that limα→0αuα(θ, x) = ξ(θ) where ξ(θ) is the average on ]0, θ[ of the optimal cost of the (usual) in nite horizon risk-sensitive control problem.

An Iterated Pseudospectral Method For Functional Partial Differential Equations, J. Mead, B. Zubik-Kowal
An Iterated Pseudospectral Method For Functional Partial Differential Equations, J. Mead, B. Zubik-Kowal
Mathematics Faculty Publications and Presentations
Chebyshev pseudospectral spatial discretization preconditioned by the Kosloff and Tal-Ezer transformation [10] is applied to hyperbolic and parabolic functional equations. A Jacobi waveform relaxation method is then applied to the resulting semi-discrete functional systems, and the result is a simple system of ordinary differential equations d/dtUk+1(t) = MαUk+1(t)+f(t,U kt). Here Mα is a diagonal matrix, k is the index of waveform relaxation iterations, U kt is a functional argument computed from the previous iterate and the function f …
Is The Number Of Sick Persons In A Cohort Constant Over Time?, Paula Diehr, Ann Derleth, Anne Newman, Liming Cai
Is The Number Of Sick Persons In A Cohort Constant Over Time?, Paula Diehr, Ann Derleth, Anne Newman, Liming Cai
UW Biostatistics Working Paper Series
Objectives: To estimate the number of persons in a cohort who are sick, over time.
Methods: We calculated the number of sick persons in the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS), a cohort study of older adults followed up to 14 years, using eight definitions of “healthy” and “sick”. We projected the number in each health state over time for a birth cohort.
Results: The number of sick persons in CHS was approximately constant for 14 years, for all definitions of “sick”. The estimated number of sick persons in the birth cohort was approximately constant from ages 55-75, after which it decreased. …
A Fast Three-Step Phase-Shifting Algorithm, Peisen S. Huang, Song Zhang
A Fast Three-Step Phase-Shifting Algorithm, Peisen S. Huang, Song Zhang
Song Zhang
We propose a new three-step phase-shifting algorithm, which is much faster than the traditional three-step algorithm. We achieve the speed advantage by using a simple intensity ratio function to replace the arctangent function in the traditional algorithm. The phase error caused by this new algorithm is compensated for by use of a look-up-table (LUT). Our experimental results show that both the new algorithm and the traditional algorithm generate similar results, but the new algorithm is 3.4 times faster. By implementing this new algorithm in a high-resolution, real-time 3D shape measurement system, we were able to achieve a measurement speed of …

3-D Optical Measurement Using Phase Shifting Based Methods, Peisen S. Huang, Song Zhang
Song Zhang
We review some of our most recent works on 3-D shape measurement using the digital fringe projection and phase-shifting method. First, we introduce the measurement principle and phase-shifting algorithms. Then we discuss an effective method for phase error compensation and a novel idea for system calibration. Finally, we describe a 3-D shape measurement system for high-resolution, real-time 3-D shape acquisition, reconstruction and display.

Alaska Aquatic Plant Survey Report 2005, Mary Pfauth, Mark Sytsma
Center for Lakes and Reservoirs Publications and Presentations
Invasive, non-indigenous plants can degrade water quality and fish habitat when they invade lakes, ponds, and streams. Changes in plant community architecture in lakes due to invasion by canopy-forming invasive aquatic plants can result in loss of native plant biodiversity and reduction of the structural complexity of the underwater habitat.
